Creative Application Project
Order Description
Directions- Find a movie clip, piece of art, song or other artistic expression that demonstrates personality development. Connect at least two theories discussed from
weeks 1-8. Citations from the textbook and integration of class material are expected. 4-5 additional peer-reviewed articles related to the theories and relevant
application must also be cited. Paper length should be 4-5 pages. The paper should follow the following outline:
1. Introduction
2. Description of piece
3. Discussion of personality development presented through Theory 1
4. Discussion of personality development through Theory 2
5. Relevance to clinical work or research
6. Conclusion
I asked my professor to clarify the directions a little more and she said this- "For textbook citations I recommend the Shultz text (Schultz, P. & Schultz, S. E.
(2017) Theories of Personality. 11th Stamford, CT: Cengage Learning: 978-1-305-65295-8). What I mean by integration of class material, is I want to see that you are
taking what we are discussing in class and applying to this case. 4-5 peer-reviewed articles are the specific types of sources you need. I want you to find articles
not books or websites. I also want these articles to be from peer-reviewed journals to ensure a quality of information."
Your options for theories/theorists are:
-Sigmund Frued
-Carl Jung
-Karen Horney
-Erik Erikson
-Abraham Maslow
-Carl Rogers
